What makes your home a Green or Healthy Home?
The first of two completed solar homes is part of a five-acre mini-sustainable community planned as an alternative to conventional development. As architect of the proposed development, the designs and features play off each of the built and unbuilt homes resulting in more options and choices. It is simple to upgrade the solar PV and hot water since they have modular construction and well-located room to expand. Beyond the solar the catchment water is uniquely multi-filtered and sterilized with dental office systems. That system can be doubled in size by using the second storage tank. The tall construction, a simple rectangle, wide side to the tradewinds, plus tall ceilings and oversized operable windows make the home cool with natural ventilation. Add the stack ventilation through the stairwell and venting loft coupled with insulated reflective panelized roofing requiring minimal maintenance and you see the reason this is a comfortable home.Property Description

Neighborhood Description
The overall neighborhood is a collage of styles from formal fenced lawn estates to more nature landscapes sheltering painted cabins in the woods. Horses have been ridden by in the past. Five blocks up Makuu toward to highway is the community center. The immediate physical space is a transition from the salt-air zone at the beach and the woodier jungle. Mangoes are the predominate feature in the landscape along with deep green ferns.Market Area
Well-regarded subdivision 20 minutes from Hilo, home to The Malamalama School
and a long beach park. The mix of farming, services and residential development
is complemented by the nearby shopping center, the famous Sunday market, and the restaurants of Keaau and Pahoa. One hundred minutes to Kailua town.School District
The Malamalama Waldorf School is central to Hawaiian Paradise Park. Although private, it offers scholarships for Park residents. Options to attend schools in either Pahoa or Keaau are nearby.Community
Hawaiian Paradise Park has a homeowners association complete with an office, multipurpose building and sports fields. A current capital improvement plan has all sections of the subdivision anticipating the upgraded infrastructure. It is considered part of the district of Puna while also its closest connection to business in Hilo. Still mostly green, the resulting cooler air is made even sweeter with the touch of the trade winds.Location of Home or Land
